Entrepreneurship And Angel Investing Are Breaking Barriers For Womenback

Opportunities are growing for women to sidestep the glass ceiling and steer clear of the glass cliff, that corporate “opportunity” for leadership given to women and minorities when there is high risk of failure due to a crisis created by former leaders or because needed resources aren’t given.

The opportunities come from the ever-growing awareness among angel investors that women-led startups are good investments. And the awareness among women that entrepreneurship gives them control of their own destinies. No more cleaning up other people’s messes, just a great opportunity to strut your stuff while building your own wealth and the economy.
